The Carbon MORPHEUS is so sleek and streamlined its wind-tunnel test is probably just a bunch of parallel lines. Designed by EPTA, this mid-engine two-seater supercar skips nostalgia and dives straight into aggressive futurism. It looks engineered by a design studio that sees speed not as a metric, but as a shape. The design brief? “Design is the language of dreams.” Which sounds poetic until you realize what they’ve dreamt up could moonlight as a Batmobile in a Nolan film – just sharper, lower, and probably too dangerous for even Bruce Wayne. A manifesto of Italian elegance, they call it. But it leans more toward brutalist cyberpunk with a splash of Lamborghini’s wild DNA and a whisper of Bertone-era silhouette language. That tapered greenhouse? Pure retro-futurism, the kind that could only come from a country that worships both speed and sculpture in equal measure. Designer: EPTA Design The bodywork is entirely carbon fiber, and not just as a flex. The weave is visible from every angle, wrapping around exaggerated wheel arches and angry origami-like creases. It’s not just aesthetics either – it’s structure, soul, and statement. The reflections rolling off the surface are almost liquid, a high-gloss hallucination of light and intent. Look closely and you’ll see the word “VEPTA” near the front wheels, perhaps a clue or a red herring in EPTA Design’s growing mythos. Around the back, things get wild. Four vertical exhausts erupt from a tail section that looks like a spaceship’s afterburner array. There’s no wing, but the rear deck itself swoops like it’s ready to generate lift – or downforce, depending on how many laws of physics it’s trying to bend. A golden center-lock nut anchors the gloss-black wheels, which are wide, multi-spoked, and performance-obsessed. Brake calipers peek out in red, adding a splash of aggression to an otherwise stealth-fighter palette. From above, the canopy has a near-seamless wrap of glass and carbon. It’s tight. Tense. Like a jet cockpit shrunken down and perched just ahead of a carbon fiber storm. The symmetry here is clinical, the panel gaps razor-thin. It doesn’t just look fast; it looks like it was born in a vacuum chamber under military surveillance. EPTA says this is a “mid-engine two-seater supercar,” which automatically tells you what kind of proportions and intent they’re working with. But beyond the silhouette and stance, this thing is abstract sculpture on wheels. It’s less about raw specs and more about shaping emotion through velocity. And yet, it’s not lost in concept art fantasy. The presence is real, the panels are real, the reflections tell you this isn’t just a digital mockup. There’s heat coming out of those pipes in one of the rear shots. That’s combustion. That’s ambition made tactile. You don’t commit this hard to an idea unless you’re serious about chasing it into reality.The post The MORPHEUS Supercar Concept Could Make Batman Rethink His Ride first appeared on Yanko Design.

At some point in the last decade, we’ve all experienced the awkward balancing act: lying in bed, arms raised, tablet swaying dangerously above us as if testing the laws of gravity. Enter the Tablift MaxPro, a flexible, adjustable stand that feels less like a device and more like a personal assistant dedicated solely to your comfort. Instead of juggling positions, it effortlessly holds your tablet steady, allowing you to browse hands-free at the perfect viewing angle, every single time. The MaxPro builds elegantly on an already successful design. Its look is distinctively functional, thoughtfully designed with a charm that’s uniquely purposeful, making its practical brilliance clear from the first use. You get four independently adjustable steel gooseneck legs, each with a protective rubber sleeve and a grip that sticks like it’s clinging to relevance in the age of standing desks. These legs are longer and more robust than before, giving the MaxPro better reach, higher elevation, and stability that feels nearly physics-defying.

While the original Tablift exists online as a product success story, the MaxPro gives it a clever upgrade in the form of a 5-angle tilt system. With it, you can fine-tune your screen’s position from upright work mode to full recline binge-watching, no micro-adjustments or pillow origami required. Whether you’re doomscrolling on your phone, flipping through a digital cookbook, or calling your boss in pajama bottoms, the MaxPro keeps everything comfortably in frame. It handles devices up to 12.9 inches wide, and it doesn’t care if you’ve wrapped yours in a tank of a case or left it bare. It’s easy to appreciate how well it slides into everyday life. In the kitchen, it stands tall over flour-dusted countertops without tipping. On the couch, it flexes like it’s been doing yoga with Adriene. In bed, it grants that rare luxury of using your tablet without turning into a human origami swan. For the remote worker with two screens but one desk, it’s the second monitor stand you didn’t know you needed. And yes, for the fitness crowd, it stays eye-level during yoga or floor workouts without requiring a break to reposition. There’s also a joy in how unapologetically tactile it is. Nothing digital about it—just a physical object with physical utility. No apps. No firmware updates. Just unfold, insert your device, set the angle, and you’re off. It collapses down neatly too, its spindly legs folding inward like a retreating Transformer. Toss it into a tote bag or tuck it in a drawer; it doesn’t fight back. The MaxPro comes in three colors this time, because even utilitarian tools deserve a bit of flair. Kickstarter backers can snag one early, with optional add-ons like a screen cleaner and tote bag that feel more like thoughtful gestures than upsells. What the Tablift MaxPro truly excels at is not flashy tech, it’s the seamless convenience and practical comfort it brings to everyday life. In a world drowning in algorithmic solutions and smart-this or AI-that, a physically elegant answer to a common frustration feels strangely refreshing. It doesn’t buzz or glow or send notifications. It just works. And that, somehow, makes it one of the smarter designs on the market. Click Here to Buy Now: $38 $65 (42% off).

Debate about whether artificial intelligence can replicate the intellectual labor of doctors, lawyers, or PhDs forgoes a deeper concern that’s looming: Entire companies—not just individual jobs—may be rendered obsolete by the accelerating pace of AI adoption. Reports suggesting OpenAI will charge $20,000 per month for agents trained at a PhD level spun up the ongoing debate about whose job is safe from AI and whose job is not. “I’ve not seen it be that impressive yet, but it’s likely not far off,” James Villarrubia, head of digital innovation and AI at NASA CAS, told me. Sean McGregor, the founder of Responsible AI Collaborative who earned a PhD in computer science, pointed out how many jobs are about more than just a set of skills: “Current AI technology is not sufficiently robust to allow unsupervised control of hazardous chemistry equipment, human experimentation, or other domains where human PhDs are currently required.” The big reason I polled the audience on this one was because I wanted to broaden my perspective on what jobs would be eliminated. Instead, it changed my perspective. AI needs to outperform the system, not the role Suzanne Rabicoff, founder of the human agency think tank and fractional practice, The Pie Grower, gave me some reading assignments from her work, instead of a quote. Her work showed me that these times are unprecedented. But something clicked in my brain when she said in her writing that she liked the angle of more efficient companies rising instead of jobs being replaced at companies with a lot of tech and human capital debt. Her response to that statement? “Exactly my bet.”  Sure, this is the first time that a robot is doing the homework for some college students. However, there is more precedent for robots moving market share than for replacing the same job function across a sector. Fortune 500 companies—especially those bloated with legacy processes and redundant labor—are always vulnerable to decline as newer, more nimble competitors rise. And not because any single job is replaced, but because the foundational economics of their business models no longer hold. AI doesn’t need to outperform every employee to render an enterprise obsolete. It only needs to outperform the system. Case study: The auto industry Take, for example, the decline of American car manufacturers in the late 20th century. In the 1950s, American automakers had a stranglehold on the car industry, not unlike today’s tech giants. In 1950, the U.S. produced about 75% of the world’s cars. But in the 1970s, Japanese automakers pioneered the use of robotics in auto manufacturing. These companies produced higher-quality vehicles at great value thanks to leaner operations that were also more precise. Firms like GM struggled to keep up, burdened by outdated factories and excessive human capital costs—including bloated pensions. The seismic shift in the decades to follow paints a picture of what could be in store for large companies now. In 1960, the U.S. produced about 48% of the world’s cars, while Japan accounted for just 5%. By 1980, Japan had captured around 29% of the market, while the U.S. had fallen to 23%. Today’s AI shakeup could look similar. Decades from now, we could look at Apple similarly to how we look at Ford now. AI startups with more agile structures are poised to eat market share. On top of that, startups can focus on solving specialized problems, sharpening their competitive edge. Will your company shrivel and die? The fallout has already begun. Gartner surveyed organizations in late 2023, finding that about half were developing their own AI tools. By the end of 2024, that dropped to 20%. As hype around generative AI cools, Gartner notes that many chief information officers are instead using outside vendors—either large language model providers or traditional software sellers with AI-enhanced offerings. In 2024, AI startups received nearly half of the $209 billion in global venture funding. If only 20% of legacy organizations currently feel confident competing with these upstarts, how many will feel that confidence as these startups mature? While headlines continue to fixate on whether AI can match PhD-level expertise, the deeper risk remains largely unspoken: Giant companies will shrivel and some may die. And when they do, your job is at risk whether you greet customers at the front desk or hold a PhD in an engineering discipline. But there are ways to stay afloat. One of the most impactful pieces of advice I ever received came from Jonathan Rosenberg, former SVP of products at Google and current advisor to Alphabet, when I visited the company’s campus in college. “You can’t just be great at what you do, you have to catch a great wave. Early people think it’s about the company, then the job, then the industry. It’s actually industry, company, job…” So, how do you catch the AI wave? Ankur Patel, CEO of Multimodal, advises workers to learn how to do their current jobs using AI tools that enhance productivity. He also notes that soft skills—mobilizing people, building relationships, leading teams—will become increasingly valuable as AI takes over more technical or routine tasks. “You can’t have AI be a group leader or team leader, right? I just don’t see that happening, even in the next generation forward,” Patel said. “So I think that’s a huge opportunity…to grow and learn from.” The bottom line is this: Even if the AI wave doesn’t replace you, it may replace the place you work. Will you get hit by the AI wave—or will you catch it? George Kailas is CEO of Prospero.ai.

Gigantamax Cinderace is making its Gigantamax debut in Pokémon Go, and as usual with these types of Pokémon, it’ll be tough to take down. Cinderace will specifically be around during the weekend portion of the “Instrumental Wonders” event, from June 7 at 6 a.m. until June 8 at 9 p.m. in your local time. Below we list Gigantamax Cinderace’s best counters and weaknesses in Pokémon Go, as well as general battle tips for the big bunny. Gigantamax Cinderace weaknesses Cinderace is a pure fire-type, so you can use ground-, rock-, or water-type moves to take it down effectively. That said, it’ll be resistant against bug-, steel-, fire-, grass-, ice-, and fairy-type moves, so don’t use those unless they’re just fast moves to help charge the max meter. Gigantamax Cinderace best counters Try to bring at least one of these attackers: Gigantamax Kingler with Metal Claw (G-Max Foam Burst) Dynamax Inteleon with Water Gun (Max Geyser) Dynamax Excadrill with Mud Shot (Max Quake) Gigantamax/Dynamax Blastoise with Water Gun (G-Max Cannonade/Max Geyser) The only thing really iffy about the above is Inteleon. If you don’t already have a Dynamax Inteleon, do not bother building one now (unless you’re sitting on tons of Sobble Candy), as Gigantamax Inteleon will be showing up literally next. For defenders/tanks, bring one or two of the following: Dynamax Blissey with Pound Dynamax Zapdos with Thunder Shock Dynamax/Gigantamax Blastoise with Water Gun Dynamax/Gigantamax Charizard with Dragon Breath These guys’ job is just to soak up the damage from Cinderace while generating as much energy as possible with their fast attacks. These counters are pretty straightforward, though note that the Zapdos is kind of just there to withstand the damage if the Cinderace you’re going against knows Focus Blast, as that could possibly give your Blissey a tough time. Consider just bringing the strongest Dynamax or Gigantamax Pokémon you have. If you have a maxed out Gigantamax Gengar and your Dynamax Excadrill isn’t leveled (and you don’t have the means to power it up), just bring your Gengar. General Gigantamax Cinderace tips If you’ve been struggling in Max Battles, here’s some general tips to survive — and make sure you’re an asset to your team. Gigantamax battles involve way more strategy than the usual rampant tapping that you do in raids, so make sure to know what you’re doing before jumping in. Make sure you have enough players. High-efficiency groups with maxed out investments can take down the Cinderace with fewer people, but practically, if you don’t have hundreds of spare candy and even more Stardust laying around, this isn’t going to be an option for you. Make sure you have as many people as possible to ensure that you get your soccer bunny. Don’t sleep on Max Spirit and Max Guard. Teams work best when there’s a variety of moves, not just maxed-out attacks. Each player should bring Pokémon with the defensive and healing moves unlocked as well. Max Guard will focus single-target damage towards you and reduce the damage taken; Max Spirit will heal the whole party. These moves are really important to make sure your damage-dealers can keep dishing. Remember to swap to super effective moves when it’s time to Dynamax. For Dynamax Pokémon, their max moves are determined by whatever type their fast move is. This means if you have a Darmanitan with Fire Fang, it will know Max Flare. A Gengar with Lick will know Max Phantasm. Take advantage of this and make sure to swap to a Pokémon that will deal super effective damage to your target before Dynamaxing, if you can. Focus on your fast moves. You want to spam your fast moves to build up that Dynamax meter and often times, using your charge move is actually a DPS loss when compared to the damage you could be doing with your max move will be. Spam those attacks! Level up a few ‘mons, but you don’t have to go too hard. Depending on your group size, you absolutely do not need to max out all your Dynamax Pokémon to level 40-50. While this will make it easier on the rest of your group, if this isn’t an investment you can make, you don’t have to stress about it. Power things up as high as you can afford to, but don’t fret if you don’t have a maxed out Pokémon. All of that said, make sure to come as prepared as you can be. This is a team effort and there’s a chance that a full group of four can still fail. Do not just bring your unleveled Dynamax Wooloo expecting a free ride to a powerful Pokémon. (After all, if everyone does that, then you certainly won’t clear the battle.) Again, you don’t have to completely max out your Pokémon, but it will be better for everyone involved if you bring something helpful to the table. There’s no shiny Cinderace this time around! Scorbunny’s shiny has not been added to the game yet (and it likely won’t be until it gets its own Community Day), so if you’re looking to shiny hunt Gigantamax Cinderace… you’ll have to wait until next time.
